Hi Pirming,
thanks for raising the issue. I'd be a bit careful about autoclosing. Tickets 
are a
huge source of knowledge about the program, often are opened as placeholder not 
to
forget missing function that we'll deal with, sooner or later, etc.
Besides that, users will sometimes take this as impolite, or think that we are 
trying
to hide problems, and refrain from getting involved with the project.
Me and Giovanni Manghi have dealt with (and opened[0]) many hundreds of 
tickets, and
I think nothing can replace careful consideration.
Having said that, I agree that if a ticket has no feedback for weeks, and is 
probably
a local issue, is better be closed.
Please do some careful simulation, checking the likely results, before acting.
This is by no means a secondary issue, as it involves our public image, and the
relations with our community.

All the best.
